THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 27 With the ignition ON, the trunk open symbol will be displayed in the instrument cluster indicating that the trunk is open. The odometer display will reappear once the trunk is closed. With the key in lock position or key out, the trunk open symbol will be displayed until the trunk is closed. TRUNK SAFETY WARNING Trunk Emergency Release 2 WARNING! Do not allow children to have access to the trunk, either by climbing into the trunk from outside, or through the inside of the vehicle. Always close the trunk lid when your vehicle is unattended. Once in the trunk, young children may not be able to escape, even if they entered through the rear seat. If trapped in the trunk, children can die from suffocation or heat stroke. Emergency Release The trunk of your vehicle is equipped with an emergency release handle. It is located on the inside of the trunk lid, near the latch, and is coated so that it glows in a darkened trunk. Pull on the handle to open the trunk.
